Hello fellow punters! ...Using automated selections, obviously the killer is the lay bet losing run, especially greyhounds, but it's strange how they seem to come along like buses!
I'd like to have zero/tiny stake on the next matched bet (or probably the next 2 matched bets) immediately after a losing lay.
I've tried setting the first simple sequence to 1 and the next figure to .01 and checked after a loser.
The intention being that after a losing bet, the next matched bet will have a low (stake x 0.01) placed on it.
I've found that the first bet is matched but then no further bets are matched. Any suggestions on how to get this to work, please, anyone?

Can you get any screenshots of your settings?

Hi Steve,

Stake: 0.50
Multiplier: 0.01

Actual stake for second bet: 0.50 * 0.01 = 0.005 and this is rounded to zero.

This is incorrect stake value so there is no bet.

You should set stake at main screen to 1 pound.

Rade

OK Rade, thanks.
I'll make it 0.02 then use 50p stakes.
Have I got the right option box checked, please?

You have ticked option to restart simple sequence staking plan on first bet that makes you loss.

If I understand this correctly you should not tick this option because in this case stake will be minimum/zero after first winning bet.

Please try it out in simulation mode and see how it works.

Rade

I don't think simple sequence will do what i want?.....to recap...

Bot places same stake say 50p on all bets utill a loser.
After a losing bet, i want the next 2 bets to be skipped, or minimal stake.
Then, after these 2 bets are settled, revert back to full 50p stake.
Then repeat full stake until the next loser.

You can set sequence like this:
1st multiplier: 0.50
2nd multiplier: 0.01
3rd multiplier: 0.01

And tick option "Restart sequence after last multiplier". It should do what you explained here.

Make sure that you turn on rule to allow zero unsettled markets, it will help you see if your sequence is doing like you explained and you will not have to worry if previous bets were settled when new bet is placed.

If you do like what Rade wrote here then I think you will need to tick two boxes and I'm not sure if that would work
1. "Restart sequence on first winning bet"
2. "Restart sequence after last multiplier"

This will make sure the bot keep betting at 0.50 until a loss occur ("Restart sequence on first winning bet") and then bet 0.01 twice after a loss to skip two races ("Restart sequence after last multiplier") and then start again at 0.50.

If you do just as Rade wrote I think that it will bet 0.01 on second and third bet regardless.

I don't know if it's possible to tick two boxes at once, you got to ask Rade. But if that is possible then this might work

Thanks for your input, Cartex, testing indicates that you are right.
I will try checking both boxes and see what happens.

[steve]

Please see attached. Unfortunately, after the losing bet its not using the sequence that you suggested Cartex, its just using my loss recovery settings and then starting the sequence again. Any futher suggestions would be welcome!
Suggestion Rade, it would be good if check boxes that aren't available due to other settings are greyed-out?

[cartex]

You are not supposed to use loss recovery with that staking plan.
Then the whole purpose is gone.

You have to disable the recovery. If you want to use recovery then it won't work with this staking plan
And you better try it in sim and not in live mode

cartex

[steve]

Oops!
Thanks Cartex. Is this the same with all staking plans from that popup?
So non-selectable greyed-out options would be a good idea!

[cartex]

Yes, the puropse of a stakingplan is to give you a long-term profit without any use of recovery if you have a good system.
You can use loss recovery with a staking plan...but then the bets WILL NOT follow the staking plan.
Yes, you have to untick and grey out the recovery section (you have to reload or pause and resume the bot again for it to take effect)

[steve]

Thanks Cartex...also I didn't realise that you had to pause/restart when checking/unchecking the loss pot facility.
